DUB INC. BRINGS VIBES FROM FRANCE TO NYC

Easy Star Records is proud to help spread the word about the French reggae act DUB INC, who are set to make their US debut this week in New York. The exciting band, which has played over 800 shows since forming in St. Etienne, France, in 1997, has been waiting for the chance to bring their unique reggae sound to the US for years. The time has come. The group's sound incorporates North African influences to make them unlike most of other reggae acts you might see. The band features two vocalists, with one doing a more typical deep throated ragga style and the other bringing North African eastern singjay vocalizations to the mix. Check out the NYC Reggae Events Page to see all of the dates lined up for their week in NY. For a taste of their live show, check out this clip from 2008.
